Chris Haskett – Language – Review

December 1, 1995

Super-artsy, deft guitar playing with random sound bites and occasional cello and viola, released by Henry Rollins’ label.

Black Grape – It’s Great When You’re Straight…Yeah – Review

December 1, 1995

In the late ’80s/early ’90s, the Happy Mondays were legendary for their debauchery. Is Black Grape as good as the Mondays? Better – by a long shot.

Big Country – Why The Long Face – Review

December 1, 1995

Guitars replace them kick-ass bagpipes, vocal harmonies still stacked to the ceiling. Pure guitar pop. I kinda dig some of the songs, but I miss the bagpipes.

Trapped Instinct – Alarm – Review

December 1, 1995

If you remixed the Chili Peppers’ first album and added scratching and funky samples and replaced Anthony with Mike Patton, you’d end up with Trapped Instinct.

The Rugburns – Taking The World By Donkey – Review

December 1, 1995

I wrote with a black grease pencil in a crabbed and illegible script the lyrics to the first three songs I heard. It filled both sides of the sheet.

The Bottle Rockets – The Brooklyn Side – Review

December 1, 1995

The Bottle Rockets may sound a little too reminiscent of middle-aged mom heartthrob rock, e.g., the Bruces Hornsby and Springsteen. Look a little deeper.

Space Needle – “Sun Doesn’t Love Me” – Review

December 1, 1995

Space Needle are not boring pop. They’re one of the most satisfying and challenging bands around, and if the pop’s there, it’s anything but ostentatious.

Shawn Colvin – Live ’88 – Review

December 1, 1995

During an unpleasant portion of my life, I used to go to pretentious coffeehouses, clapping politely to the latest Dylan wanna-be singing “sensitive” songs.

Sharkboy – The Valentine Singles – Review

December 1, 1995

Like a large jewelry box, The Valentine Singles contains four 45s. Woozy from umbrella-topped drinks but not tipsy enough to falter from perfect elegance feel.

Self – Subliminal Plastic Motives – Review

December 1, 1995

All 12 songs meld big ’90s guitarrorism, organic samples, and an obsessive-compulsive attention to detail with bright harmonies and indelible choruses.
